On May 20th, Ms. Smita Pant – Consul General of India in Ho Chi Minh city had a working visit in Dong Nai to strengthen the diplomacy and learn some policies to provide information technology (IT) supports to Indian enterprises who want to invest in Dong Nai province.
Ms. Smita Pant – Consul General of India is giving a souvenir to Mr. Dinh Quoc Thai – Chairman of Provincial People’s Committee.
Member of Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam, Provincial Secretary – Mr. Nguyen Phu Cuong introduced the provincial socioeconomic characteristics and potentials to Ms. Consul General and on behalf of the province expressed the desire to receive investments from Indian enterprises in many fields.
Ms. Smita Pant said, Indian’s investments in ASEAN countries reached nearly 40 billion USD, in which, only about 1 billion was invested in Vietnam, since Indian enterprises didn’t get much insight into Vietnamese market. In the near future, Dong Nai shall organize more meetings to introduce the provincial policies and fields which are prioritized to attract investments to the Indian enterprises so they can promote their investment. Indian enterprises wish to invest in IT, hi-tech labor training, industry and education in the province. In July 2016, over 30 Indian IT enterprises shall come to Vietnam and Dong Nai shall be one of their investment destinations
According to Mr. Dinh Quoc Thai, Dong Nai was attracting FDI in hi-tech industries and green industries. Indian enterprises were very strong in IT, thus, Dong Nai really expects the enterprises to invest in such field in the province. Currently, there are 2 Indian invested projects with the total capital of 3.6 million USD in Dong Nai.
